Babe Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 Stuck! In Dreamweaver, my pages are all aligned nicely... (first pic) When I view them in the Browser they don't look the same - even the font is different! (second pic) What's going on? I gotta hand this in this week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 It's probably created CSS coded pages and produced some code not supported by your browser. Try using tables to format the information instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Babe Posted April 9, 2007 Author Share Posted April 9, 2007 Oh bum... is there not another way? I got LOADS of pages! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terribleturner Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 That is odd. On the plus side you can copy and paste alot of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chilli Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 it's probably not even loading the stylesheet in by the looks of it, hence why the fonts and everything are different. But did you even set a stylesheet up or are they just in line styles? that's the problem with tools like dreamweaver, they are ok but they do a lot for you automagically and sometimes it leaves you in a pickle, it never hurts to look at the html itself to see exactly what is going on but as a guess for the alignment problem, it might just be the extra space used up by the menu, making everything squished in horizontally. Try adjusting the spacing accordingly on the cols - whatever way you've divided the page up, probably with tables (which is the old fashioned way of doing it). Try to set the widths as page percentage perhaps to get a page that scales ok according to the users screen size Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's a stylesheet... doh! well done if you have to ask then you don't need them lol (but it's just a way of applying styles to a site in a structured way such that the style information is separate from the main html, which is better and means you can transform the look of a site in seconds by switching styles... i.e. changing one file not every file on a site).
